The consensus on this thread seems to be that the GOP list of house candidates is weak and unsupported.

Yet our ground game is said to be a record breaking organization in terms of numbers.

Allowing for the fact that the House congressional committee is different from the Trump reelection organization and allowing for the fact that most of our emphasis no doubt has gone into battleground states, this still seems strange. One would expect the whole organization to be built around precincts, districts, counties then states.

Oh, I wouldn't say that. I think the RNC's GOTV operation is going to impress on Tuesday. Heck, it's already impressed me with early voting and voter registration numbers from key states like NC, FL, PA and NV. That's why I'm excited for all the Pubbies running in states that POTUS needs or wants to win.

The NRCC has been a disappointment, in my view. But I could say the same about the Trump campaign and other GOP power players (I'm only talking from the perspective of winning back the House). They have not been talking up GOP chances, and I can't understand why. But some here feel that's a deliberate strategy. I am not privy to communications and funding numbers, so perhaps that perspective is correct. Not sure I understand why a stealth approach, though.
